    Divinity: Original Sin II Review

    Divinity: Original Sin II is the sequel to Larian Studio's 2014 RPG hit. Having been funded by an incredibly successful Kickstarter campaign and reaching its initial goal in a matter of hours, the game has now emerged from Steam Early Access for a full release. Much like its predecessor, Original Sin II is a classic-style RPG featuring an isometric viewpoint, turn-based combat, and party quests. Can it deliver on the hype surrounding its development and build on the original game? Let's take a look.

    [...]

    No doubt about it, this is a fantastic game. The established lore of the series has been built on to create a detailed, immersive world with a dynamic combat system and the possibility to approach the game in many different ways. This is all underpinned by fabulous voice acting, appealing characters, and, most importantly of all, a well-written and engaging story with plenty of replay value. Larian Studios have set an example on how to crowdfund a game and how to make the most of Early Access. With Divinity: Original Sin II, they have set a potentially genre-defining example of how to make an RPG.

    Score: 9.5/10 - Amazing

    Good
    • Immersive, well-written story
    • Engaging cast of characters
    • Impressive range of choice for quests and interactions
    • Fantastic voice acting
    • Great replay value
    Bad
    • Need to rotate camera takes a little getting used to
    • Lack of character animation during some dialogue exchanges
